Welcome to the 4th recap for the month. We are coming to the final countdown of Art Journals in the Series, and I hope that you have been inspired and managed to make the most of your time and to incorporate some art journaling for yourself. Remember to check out the Sunday Background videos to give you some really quick ideas for creating a background that you can build on. Today we will recap on the videos for the week, think about what might have been your favorite style of journal. If you haven't had time to check them out during the week and catch up below. Lets look at some Art Journal Tips that you can put into practice, I hope that you can find something that will encourage you.

Art Journal Tips

1. Gesso is your best friend, and has many uses in your
journal, become familiar with it.

2. If something isn’t working the way that you want it to do
some research and find out what you need to, there is so much information and
examples, teaching, tutorials online you are spoilt for choice. Use your journal to help you grow and work
through these times.

3. Do not be afraid to try something new

4. Push your boundaries in your journal, this is the perfect
place to experiment.

5. Select materials and tools you’re not familiar with and experiment,
get out of your comfort zone, you might actually like them.

6. Think about why you want to cover something up, is it part
of your process or are you running away from a truth that needs to be expressed
on your page
